    What the heck??? Where's the variety of rewards? In the past Screenshot campaigns offered 4? maybe 5? options as rewards.... What happened to Marvelous Cheer? Well? So if people already have the masque and umbrella, sorry don't waste your time.

    Very poor decision... offer all the 'screenshot' campaign exclusives and what not so people will want to participate. What a bizarre and unnecessary decision from you guys @ SE.

    I agree. This is really poor. The "Well" was an exceptionally good reward, as it caps a player's storage on its own and saves inventory space. I also got a neat white Chocobo hat in another screenshot campaign. You guys should have made up some new rewards for this, or at least offered far more choice than this from the existing. I am doing the new high tier battlefield today for the first time with my linkshell, and I won't bother wasting time getting a screenshot.

    Probably forgot to update the a bit here to '#CloudofDarknessCampaign'. :]

    And indeed, unexpectedly few rewards this time around, I maybe guess.
